Bridgetown Holdings Considering a Potential Merger with Circles.Life

By Douglas Kim

  • Bridgetown Holdings, a SPAC backed by Peter Thiel and Richard Li, is considering a potential merger with Singapore’s virtual telco Circles.Life (merger valuation could range US$1.5 billion to US$2.5 billion). 
  • All in all, the valuation range of the proposed M&A merger of Bridgetown Holdings and Circles.Life needs to be reduced substantially, in order to generate more interest in this deal. 
  • Otherwise, there is likely to be weak demand for this merger deal. In addition, the market environment for SPAC related M&A deals have deteriorated significantly in the past 6-12 months.
